Dear Sir,
Mrs Franks widow of John Adams Frank a surgeon (I think) in the Revolutionary Army made application last winter for a pension, and has not yet been able to learn the result of her application. There is proof of her husband's service in your office - so you informed me.
Mrs Franks is poor and infirm and in great need of money. I know the old woman and her family and I have no doubt of the justness of her application. If you allow her a pension you may, if you think proper, forward her Certificate to me. (Your attention to this matter will greatly oblige
Very Truly
Your Obedt. Servt.
